Ein Fehler im Akku kann Pluginhybrid-Jeeps in Flammen aufgehen lassen. Eine Lösung für das Problem hat Chrysler bisher nicht.

Maybe we do something right in freeciv development, as reviews in sourceforge still show 5.0 stars out of 5 (38x5, 2x4, no lesser scores) https://sourceforge.net/projects/freeciv/reviews/

For a project to be truly #OpenSource (not to mention #FreeSoftware), it really needs to:
1. Have a *public* issue tracker that enables you to browse and search through issue reports *without* having to create an account.
2. Accept issue reports, with no strings attached. Yes, expecting registration is fine. Yes, expecting some effort to file a good bug report is fine. No, expecting people to ask permission, donate or otherwise put a lot of extra work to report a problem is not.
3. Do not close issue reports as "stale". Yes, it's fine to close a report if you really believe it was fixed, or if you asked for something and the user didn't reply for a long time. It's not fine to run a bot expecting users to jump every month so that the issue report that *you are ignoring* doesn't get closed.
If a project doesn't meet these, it's just a glorified throwaway code.

#FreeSoftwareAdvent I couldn't work without LibreOffice or Thunderbird. The former is a fantastic and comprehensive office suite, and the latter is Mozilla's IMAP and POP3 email client.
I suggested using them years ago at a work meeting, and since then, Microsoft tools have been discarded in favor of their opensource alternatives.

It’s amazing how you can make #FreeTube so simple and distraction-free!

For #FreeSoftwareAdvent I'd like to post about open source tools that we're using in our #VFXPipeline.
On Dec. 5th let's start with #OpenImageIO (

As for the podcasters themselves, who I’m quite sure are not having any kind of moral awakening here but rather are just sensing their market shifting from under them (again, rats sinking ship):
I’ll happily accept any genuine help taking down the fash — that is how coalitions work — and that doesn’t mean I’m trusting or forgiving anyone.
